Current Crisis Plan Description

Mental Health/Crisis Intervention/Threat Assessment

​

Purpose: These procedures are intended to guide staff in responding to more frequently occurring crisis such deaths, injuries, emergencies or other traumatic events impacting the school community. As a result of such incidents, students and staff may exhibit a variety of psychological reactions. As soon as the safety of those involved have been insured, attention must turn to meeting the emotional and psychological needs of students and staff. Knowing what to do if such as crisis occurs will minimize the chaos, rumors and the impact of the event on other students and staff.

​

School Commander:

• Notify the Superintendent of the incident or emergency.
• Ensure the designated media or public information officer is notified and briefed on the circumstances and actions taken. Request the PIO to prepare formal announcement and media release.
• Activate the school Crisis Intervention Team and assign duties. Request additional district level support from teams from other schools or community-based mental health resources if needed.
• Notify building support staff including counselors, psychologists and social workers.
• Convene an emergency staff meeting. Invite outside professionals to join the meeting to help staff members process their own reactions to the situation.
• Determine if additional district/community resources are needed—or are needed to “stand by”—to effectively manage the crisis, and notify them if appropriate.
• Assign staff to monitor the grounds for students leaving the building without permission. Redirect them to support services. If unable to intercept, make parent notification and inform them of the situation.
• Make an initial announcement over the PA system to the entire school. Include minimum details and note that additional information will be forthcoming. Prepare statements for telephone inquiries.
• Immediately following resolution of the crisis, convene the Crisis Intervention Team for a debriefing to discuss successes and problems and allow staff an opportunity to discuss feeling and reactions.
• ​

​

Crisis intervention/ Threat Assessment Team

​

In the event any staff member becomes aware, directly or indirectly,

of a student that is at risk for suicide the following protocol will be implemented:

Principal: Dr. Maxine Jeremiah

Assistant Principal: John Knobbe

Social Worker: Ashley Kough

​

1. An adult or another adult designee must stay with the student; student should not be allowed to walk home.

​

2. Immediately make direct verbal contact with the building administration and/or social worker (email, voicemail, communications are not considered timely or effective). If a staff member is teaching, call the office and ask an administrator to come to the classroom (do not wait until the end of class or break time). Do not state the student’s name or provide any details. If needed, PAEC will be contacted for additional support.

​

3. Social worker, psychologist and/or nurse will promptly conduct an interview with the student using the Suicide Risk Assessment Checklist.

​

4. If the Student Risk Assessment indicates the necessity for emergency or immediate services, an administrator, social worker, psychologist and/or nurse will contact emergency medical services (SASS, 911/police, mental health agency).

​

5. Administrator, social worker, psychologist and/or nurse will contact parent/guardian and send home mental health resources.

​

6. Have parent/guardian complete Parent Acknowledgement Form by signing and dating.

​

7. Administrator, social worker, psychologist and/or nurse will ensure that a Student Suicide Incident Report is completed and distributed to staff that work with the student as well as administration. Staff completing the report will also log it into PowerSchool.

​

8. Social Worker, psychologist and/or nurse will follow up with school staff who work with the student.

​

9. Social Worker, psychologist and/or nurse will follow up with parent/guardians regarding student status, mental health services, discharge paperwork, etc. If a guardian refuses recommended services due to imminent risk of suicide, school staff will call DCFS to report the incident.
